There would be a new revolution in OS concept and interfaces like there was when we switched from command line to graphic interface. I still see a desktop, a wallpaper, an application menu, some icons, windows... How long developers will recycle the same idea? A familiar enviroment is more simple to learn, I know, but without real innovations, it's difficult to persuade people to buy the latest software. We know what happened at Vista launch: a lot of people preferred a downgrade, and still are switchig back to XP. Sorry for the bad English (I'm Italian).

Originally developed to make it possible for touch users to get to jump-lists quickly, it works with a mouse and works remarkably well (since dragging up also puts your mouse over the jump-list, ready to click something).
